TheaSeveral days had gone by, the girls and I got to bond better each passing day. Cassie was getting more comfortable with us and she was a sweetheart to have around. It became clearer that she had something for Knight. Camilo and I gossiped about it sometimes while Florentine avoided the topic each time we brought it up. She definitely knew something about it. Angel, he was my the main source of my happiness these days and I could feel I was his as well. He made me feel loved, he was a different man...I mean not totally changed but he was showing a side of him that others probably didn't knew existed to me. I felt special. "Let me tag along please...." Cassie's persuasive voice took me out of my lane of thought. I quickly adjusted my face after realizing that I had been smiling widely at my thoughts. I wanted to laugh at myself but I held it together. "Thea, please talk to him." Cassie said holding my hand. I was left wordless that she was asking. Why would she think that Angel w
TheaI sat beside Angel at the backseat of the car, there was tension in the air and my hunch told me he was waiting to do something. We hit the road soon enough and as the minutes went by I began feeling suffocated.I could feel Angel's burning gaze on me but I dared not look back. My lips felt slightly shaky as I parted them to take in some air. My heart paced at distorted rythm as a result of the desires building in me.Gosh! I loved this man and he was too hot to handle most of the time. I saw him relax back on his seat tearing his gaze away from me and a heavy sigh of relieve left my mouth but then my eyes shot open suddenly, I froze and my skin blazed with sensations rippling into my very core. His hand was on my thigh, I turned my head in his direction to look at him and a rather coy smile lengthened his lips, his gaze soon swayed into seriousness and I felt a slight shiver tickle my spine as his fingers trailed it's way beneath my dress. I returned focus to road but I could
Thea The red dress it was, my bare neck adorned with a fine diamond necklace, the perfect shades to my face, I must confess Cassie was a brilliant make up artist. My heels clicked as I walked side to side with Angel through the hall. Arms in arms, a racing breath, a brave smile to my lips and a sinfully handsome man as my date.I had imagined this day countless times in my head, meeting Lola, running into Sparrow and a number of new faces sorrounded by dangerous aura's. It was a bit overwhelming now being here in present. The party hosted by Don Ricardo and here I was presumably his daughters rival for a man's attention tonight.Bright lights illuminated the vast hall, the smell of rich cologne filled the air making me understand what Calibre of people I was in their midst. Not very new but definitely different because they were all members of the mafia."Angel!" We both turned towards the direction of the caller, I knew him, this man was Don Antonio from the night at the Casino. H
AngelWe were ushered into an underground room, where the meeting was to take place. Guards sorrounded the place securring it.It was our annual meeting, where we got to discuss the peace, alliance and progress of the mafia community. This ensured there was no displacement of the mafia in the area we resided. This union strengthened us against the government and made it possible for every cartel to conduct their business without war breaking out at every point in time.We surely did suffer differences, misunderstandings and fights amongst each other but the council was there to regulate extremeties. I stepped into the room along with the others, my eyes scanned the place and it fell on my seat which had my name written on it. I made to move forward but someone suddenly came in front of me. I halted, shutting my eyes briefly before releasing them to look at Sparrow who grinned at me exposing his missing tooth. He wore a hat and had a stick of cigratte between his teeth that was yet
AngelI tried with everything within me to keep my anger in check because I swear I was ready to tear Sparrow from limb to limb and I wish my dogs were near so I could feed his bones to them. I moved carelessly through the crowd, hitting some persons along the line. I didn't bother to apologize, I was more interested in satiating my anger.Thea was still dancing with him and he was seizing every opportunity to feel her curves.When I had gotten near to flipping him to face me, I caught Thea's eyes. She startled and pulled away from Sparrow. She looked very scared but what did she expect? That I'd be happy she was dancing with him? Sparrow on the other hand had turned to the direction she was looking at and we caught each other's gaze. The brief smirk on his face soon disappeared as my fist almost came very close to his face only that I was seeing Thea's face now.Murmurs echoed around us as people took notice of us. My fist hung in the air and my body vibrated more in anger. "What
Thea I tried to wait patiently for Angel but the time seemed retarded. It was a painful wait and there was nothing I could talk about with Knight. I sipped the drink in my hand scanning the hall as if searching for Angel amongst the people. "Do we get cocktail hours here?" I asked trying to break the awkward silence between us. Even though I preferred knight to having Caspian guard me, he was too stiff for a proper discussion. "Maybe... Somewhere at the elevation." He said and I gulped my wine this time. I let out a nervous breath and began thinking quick on what else to say. "How much longer do I have to wait?" "Not very long. Don Ricardo still needs to be with his non mafia guests." Knight said and I snapped my head in his direction. There were non mafia guests here and I felt so intimidated. "There are?" "Business partners...." "Oh...." I muttered and gulped the rest of my drink. "I need to move." I said and he furrowed a brow at me. "It's suffocating staying at a place,
TheaMy eyes darted from side to side recalling the night at the strip club where he gave me an offer to be with him instead of Angel. Sparrow raised me up, pressing me against his body very closely. I looked away catching the bothered eyes of the guard. I shook my head disapproving him to come any closer. If Angel were to catch Sparrow and I dancing, we all would be in trouble.I forced my self to look at Sparrow while holding my breath intermittently.I decided to act like I didn't know what he was talking about."What offer?" I asked and he scoffed at my response ridiculing my pretense. I shoved a mould down my throat hoping to ease my nerves that were disturbed."Lets not act like you've forgotten now Thea." He said trying to sound calm but I could hear the annoyance in his voice. He was searching my eyes in an intimidating manner."I have no idea what you're saying." I continued and his face contorted coldly making me shiver in fear. Could I handle him if he was pissed off?He s
TheaI hoped Angel would understand why I had to dance with his rival, my soul had almost left me the moment I saw him walking up to us. I was scared that a serious fight would break out, a fight that could have been avoided if not for me. Sparrow had struck a nerve not just with me but with Angel. He knew what he was doing and obviously knew the time the meeting was going to end. I should have known better and insisted on ending the dance when I wanted to. He was calculative and that was why he needed the dance to go on longer so he could have Angel witness the sight. "Now...explain." Even though Angel's voice was low, it was firm and demanding that I felt chills over my body. I didn't want him to scold me more than he already did."It was an apology dance." I spilled just immediately. My lips quivered and my breath raced nervously. I managed a look into his eyes and he was trying to understand whatever I meant. "What do you mean by an apology dance?" He asked sounding pissed whi
